Australia will attempt to turn around the disastrous results of their Test series against India when the coloured clothes and white balls come out for a three-match ODI series. This is The Roar‘s guide to live streaming the first match of the series online and watching it on TV.

The first match of the series is set to get underway at 1:20pm (AEDT) on Saturday, January 12, with the Sydney Cricket Ground hosting the encounter.

The SCG was the host of the final Test in the recent series, and while that ended in a draw due to the weather, the forecast has no such issues this time, with two sides keen to continue their preparation for the World Cup later this year in England.

How to watch the match on TV

If you are looking to watch the match on TV, there will be only one option for the ODI matches, unlike the recent Test series, which was also available on free to air TV through the Seven Network.

This time around, you will need to be watching through Fox Sports to have access to the ODI match against India, with the pay-TV network having exclusive rights to all of Australia’s limited overs cricket.
